    There are Polyps on it, not very many but some. There are even some new ones coming in. My camera makes the picture look dim...because my camera sucks, lol. If you really want to know, my lighting is the Current USA T5's (2x54w) 48".

    My LPS corals are
    • Hammer
    • Fox
    • Pipe Organ
    • Cabbage
    • Candy Cane
    • Galaxy

    Awesome looking tank and good pictures. I have to say that I haven't heard good things about scallops in captivity though. Also, aren't pipe organs soft coral? sorry just had to add that.

    Thanks. I know about the Scallops, my dad was the one that wanted it though. I've heard things like they only live up to 1 yr. max...some say only 3 months. Time will tell. As far as the Pipe Organ goes, I'm not sure some people refer to it as Soft or LPS. I was on a website and it said it was LPS, so I just posted that here.

    Thanks for all of the comments everyone, I need to get a better camera and get those hi-def pictures. :p
